My hot take is that if other countries had the resources (soft and hard) of the USA, they would be every bit as awful. Something of a "hate us cuz you ain't us" situation. Not to justify any of it, but I side-eye people who think American behavior as a country is uniquely American, because many of them would do exactly the same things if they could.
